Here's What Happens When You Put Sugar In Your Gas Tank
« on: May 23, 2017, 07:26:35 pm »
Sugar in the gas tank is one of those staples of miserable things you always heard that awful people do to other, often similarly awful people’s cars. While nobody thinks sweeting your car’s gas is a good idea, the actual results of putting sugar in a gas tank isn’t all that well known. That’s why it’s nice to see someone actually give it a try, and evaluate exactly what happens.

My guess is that if enough is dissolved in the gas it will eventually clog up the carburetor or the fuel injectors.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

"Horsies live in your daddy's gas tank.
Horsies love sugar.
If you put some sugar in your daddy's gas tank
he will buy you a cowboy suit." - Roughly quoted from 'Uncle Miltie's ABC Book'
